Three White Roses

This is a small 5x7 sketch of white roses. I like how it came out but still need more practice with all the shades in white. It's done on oil painting paper which is a new substrate for me. I kind of like how the paint goes on it and the brushstrokes show. I'm selling most of the 30 paintings and hoping to earn some money otherwise this may be the end of my journey. I know art is not something that people need and space is limited. That's why these little guys are great! Anyway, if you've ever considered purchasing my art...well, you know. Thank you for supporting the arts! :)

Your roses are beautiful! I love the thick brush strokes, which bring the petals to life. Don't get discouraged, I believe people do need art in their life. Art provides beauty and beauty (whether through the colors of a sunset, new blooms in the spring, eyes of a loved one or from a painting that touches us) brings our hearts joy. Never underestimate the necessity of joy!
